Product Inventory Settings

This is to be used if the product itself needs to be inventoried as a whole; that is, it does not have ingredients. Example would be a can of Coke vs a cheeseburger. A cheeseburger can be assigned ingredients, so inventory keeps track of the amount of cheese, meat, buns, etc used per cheeseburger. Please click here to learn more about ingredients.
